Encompassing all of Dolly Sods North and protecting most of the upper drainage of Left Fork and Red Creek, this expansion would add approximately 7,144 acres to the existing Dolly Sods Wilderness.  This plateau features large grass expanses and bogs with heath barrens, blueberries and huckleberries.  The area is home to rare Snowshoe Hares and New England Cottontails as well as endangered species such as the Cheat Mountain Salamander and the West Virginia Northern Flying Squirrel.  For hikers, backpackers and horseback riders, Dolly Sods is especially popular for its many trails leading across diverse terrain with excellent backcountry campsites to be found throughout the area.
